Modern financial analysis has become more responsible in line with the growing role and functions of financial management for providing reliable information base. It materializes in new control procedures and methodological approaches to analysis that identify more precisely the impact of the external environment and internal resources to maintain the balance between profitability and liquidity. Examined trends in Bulgarian companies have shown variable profitability of current assets as a result of dynamically changing turnover and uncertainty in terms of sales. Low profitability and return on total assets was the result of the negative effect of long-term investment policy before and during the crisis of 2007. Sound liquidity ratios demonstrate stable performance through its adjustment by changes in short-term liabilities and the rise in overall liquidity reflects the priorities of financial management for balanced management of working capital.
